Avarni

We’re thrilled to kick off our Carbon Accounting Expert Series, where we explore the evolving landscape of carbon management with industry leaders and changemakers. Our first guest, Michael Cox from Schneider Electric Sustainability Business, shared his incredible journey — from starting as an engineer in mining and manufacturing in the early 2000s to becoming a leader in decarbonization, supply chain engagement, and sustainability consulting. His insights into the shift from voluntary carbon management to mandatory compliance, and the role of technology in enabling data-driven strategies, are both timely and invaluable. ?? A few key takeaways: > Voluntary vs. mandatory reporting: Early adopters of frameworks like TCFD are now reaping the benefits, while others are racing to meet new regulations. > The data challenge: Accurate, auditable, and actionable data remains at the core of effective carbon management. > Technology as an enabler: Tools like Avarni streamline processes, enabling consultants to focus on strategy rather than spreadsheets — unlocking greater value for clients. ?? Thank you, Michael, for your time and for Schneider Electric’s valued partnership. Together, we're helping organizations navigate the complexities of decarbonization and sustainability with speed and impact. ?? Also, a special shoutout to Austien Lie for the fantastic videography and editing work that brought this interview to life! Stay tuned for more inspiring conversations in the Carbon Accounting Expert Series! ?? #CarbonAccounting #SustainabilityLeadership #Partnerships

Double-counting emissions is one of the biggest pitfalls in #carbonaccounting. It inflates footprints, distorts sustainability data, and can lead to misleading climate claims. This is especially common in #Scope3 reporting, where multiple companies in a value chain may unknowingly count the same emissions. ?? So how do you prevent it? Clear reporting boundaries, supplier coordination, and transparent carbon credit claims are key. But the real game-changer is automation — using AI-driven tools to track and verify emissions accurately. At Avarni, we help businesses streamline their carbon accounting, ensuring accurate emissions data without duplication. Want to eliminate double-counting risks?

We're making our internal directory of emission factor databases and links to their sources freely available to all online ?? We will keep this up to date and free forever - and if you'd like to stay updated live on when databases are changed, we're working on a subscription service that you can join the waitlist for on the page below. Let us know if there are any databases we should add to this directory to expand it! https://lnkd.in/gVrUWTrc

?? California’s #SB253 and #SB261 are here — are you ready? Many companies assume SB 253 and SB 261 compliance will be complex and costly, but with the right technology, much of the work can be done in-house — saving both time and money. ?? Avarni automates emissions tracking, supplier engagement, and scenario planning, helping businesses streamline their reporting and reduce reliance on manual processes. From forecasting emissions trajectories to tracking supplier SBTi commitments, our platform makes compliance simpler, faster, and more cost-effective. ? Don’t let outdated methods slow you down.

?? Is your business ready for mandatory climate reporting? ???? With new climate disclosure regulations rolling out globally—including CSRD, SEC rules, and Australia’s AASB S2 — businesses need the right tools to ensure compliance. Tracking emissions manually? That’s a compliance risk you don’t want to take. The right mandatory climate reporting software should do more than just collect data. It should automate emissions tracking, support Scope 3 calculations, align with global standards, and provide audit-ready reports. Bonus points if it helps you monitor SBTi targets in your supply chain — because transparency and supplier collaboration are the future of sustainability. ?? Not sure what to look for? We break it down in our latest article: https://lnkd.in/gynEUwbX #ClimateReporting #Scope3 #CarbonAccounting

Thank you to Eco Voice for featuring Avarni’s new SBTi Targets feature! ?? With over 10,000 companies now setting science-based targets, it's clear that SBTi commitments are shaping global decarbonization efforts. But with growing supplier expectations and reporting complexities, tracking progress across the supply chain has never been more crucial. That’s where Avarni comes in. Our new feature helps businesses identify supplier SBTi commitments, integrate them into emissions calculations, and streamline supplier engagement — all in one platform. As companies navigate their net-zero strategies, having visibility into supplier targets is key to driving real impact. We’re excited to support organizations on this journey! ??

?? Accurate carbon reporting starts with reliable emission factors. But without transparency, emissions data can be inconsistent, difficult to verify, and non-compliant with regulations. As sustainability audits become more rigorous, businesses must ensure that their emissions calculations are backed by clear, standardized data. ?? At Avarni, we help organizations stay audit-ready with transparent, traceable emission factors and built-in audit trails that track every change in emissions data. This not only simplifies the auditing process but also strengthens trust with regulators, investors, and stakeholders. ??

With so much AI-generated rubbish on the internet these days, skepticism of product claims and polished demos is at an all time high & rightly so! So a claim like the one I've put on the thumbnail of this video would also probably be met with the same skepticism if it was a professionally created & polished product demo with a perfectly edited voice-over telling you some gobbledegook about the latest AI-powered high-tech revolutionary thingamajig. So, I'm starting a new trend of professional product demos - the ones that just show the darn product as it would be used by anyone - raw, no edits, no special effects, no perfectly edited voice-over (just me and my voice, I'm fine as I am). So for all the Scope 3 carbon accountants, watch me use Avarni to turn a 100,000 row spend file into a complete emissions inventory, mapped to multiple factor databases, in 15 minutes. I even show the time stamps so you know I'm not using any cheeky edits ?? .
